He looked like a turnstile yesterday and was standing there blocking no one while LBs ran past him into the backfield.

What happened to Pocic? Our guards? The middle of the line was collapsing almost as fast as the edges.

Toxic Les Syndrome! Regression of offensive players is common in this program.

the entire oline was poop yesterday. In fact the whole offense looked bad and like they all managed to regress together

He missed a small db on a 3rd down screen, absolutely pathetic

Not just Pocic. The entire offense has with the exception of #7.

Give him some slack--there's 10 guys lined up right on the line

I would really need to see film. in real time, I noticed that the middle of the line missed several stunts and didn't block anyone. I have to think our blocking scheme just isn't working. I mean, no holes for the RB and not protecting the passer. we'll never get better without an OL.

I greatly suspect Grimes sucks as a coach.

why is it tough to admit that their defensive front just beat LSU?

Good news is that Les is a former o-lineman and an expert in the position. He should have this straightened out in no time.

Because our guys are bigger and stronger and Wisconsin's front-7 had 1 returning starter.

It was said that Aranda's style of defense often left blockers blocking nobody, because of confusion it creates.
So we saw Aranda's defense yesterday. Just wasn't us running it to perfection.
That said, our OL,not just pocic, looked like hot garbage most of the time

No. Missing a smaller player on a screen like that isn't all that big of a deal.

Our offense has some terrible "tells" that allow the defense to jump the snap with regularity. Nothing deceptive that can keep a defense off balance.

I think everyone agrees their defensive front whooped us. That's the point.

I for one didn't see it coming, and I think it safe to say that the pundits will not be pointing back to this game for seasons to come as the coming-out party for that Great Wisconsin Defense of 2016.

We just stunk.

The whole offense looked bad because the oline looked bad. You can't have an offense, running or passing, with no one blocking.


That oline needs to be shuffled around immediately.

My sons are middle school linemen, and they kept rewinding plays to point out the poor lineman play. It was not the educational experience I had anticipated.

On the pocic wiff, he lowered his head and threw the back of his helmet and shoulder at the defender, missing. "coach told us to always keep our heads up, dad. Why did he duck?"

Let's face it - Wisc just out coached us and out hustled us. This was especially evident in the matchup of their DL and LBs against our OL.

He needs to be playing tackle. Either left or right. He is pretty tall for a center. Wisy has over achieving DL who are quick and they can get up under him because he is long. I would like to see what the freshman center we got could do. He actually played center his high school career instead of being moved there. From everything being said he is pretty good.
